Just an Idea of mine, may become a set...Andras, Marquis of Hell

[Durandamon]

I just thought of this card, like a race to see which player destroys it first, based on the Great Marquis of Hell Andras, he who controls 30 infernal legions, a powerful untrustful demon, who must be summoned with extreme caution. That gave me the idea of the self burn and the control change. So, with no more to add:

OH I get it, lvl 4 with 2600 ATK with a major price, but tell me, is the point of this card to have less cards in your hand so your opponent takes a bunch of damage?
I personally like it since it has some risk to it, and it has drawbacks even if either player controls it. I can only say that I think its balanced.

It's like a concept, since it's untrustful, Andras will go to the player with more advantages (cards) with greed, or that was what I imagined at least ^^
But yeah, the less cards the merrier

Level 4 with 2600 ATK, a little short of running over bosses. I'd rather pay the 800 life points and keep this than give it to my opponent for a silly 800 decrease.

Could probably encourage your opponent to miss plays to enlarge his/her hand and try to take this, and thus, is probably useful in decks that like big hands (and hand traps).

[/quote]Hmm yeah in that case I would personally up the price.

A good use, I think, would be to use a Mask of Restrict and Level Limit B, that could work rite? That's what I do with Number 30...

[ragnarok1945]

interesting, has a neat burn to it all

still, this isn't really too much different from the old Lava Golem card, except this one can shift around for the control.

for once the draw power actually backfires on you. But even then, 800 burn isn't really THAT huge a deal, at least not for like 1 or 2 turns

I guess it can work itself out

[Durandamon]

I know it's not like this HUGE burn, but it can make some difference in the time it takes your opponent to get rid of him.

[ragnarok1945]

yeah I know, depends on how long

2 turns by today's standards is a while, but even 1600 burn isn't fatal

Do you not see how bad this card is? And by bad, I mean [i]not[/i] balanced? A card isn't balanced, nor realistic, when it's a monster with 2600 ATK, and is Level 4. And did you not realize that a card like this will only be used in a Skill Drain deck? Now you could say that Barbaros could be classified under the same term, but no, it cannot. Barbaros is either a 1900 ATK monster / 3000 ATK monster with Skill Drain on the field or a field sweeper with the Tribute Summon effect. This card is a 2600 ATK monster with or without Skill Drain on the field, ie it will still run over most monsters even when Skill Drain is not on the field.
